Solve x-(x45/100)=88

$$x-(x \frac{ 45 }{ 100 } )=88$$

Solve for x

$$x=160$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Reduce the fraction \frac{45}{100} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 5.

$$x-x\times \frac{9}{20}=88$$

Combine x and -x\times \frac{9}{20} to get \frac{11}{20}x.

$$\frac{11}{20}x=88$$

Multiply both sides by \frac{20}{11}, the reciprocal of \frac{11}{20}.

$$x=88\times \frac{20}{11}$$

Express 88\times \frac{20}{11} as a single fraction.

$$x=\frac{88\times 20}{11}$$

Multiply 88 and 20 to get 1760.

$$x=\frac{1760}{11}$$

Divide 1760 by 11 to get 160.

$$x=160$$
